This 1979 Ford Bronco is more than just a classic SUV-it’s a rolling tribute to the wild spirit of late-’70s adventure rigs. Finished in bold red with rare Free Wheeling-style graphics, this beast stands tall on 33×13.5R15 Toyo Open Country tires wrapped around 15-inch Weld Racing wheels. With a removable half top and receiver hitch, it’s ready for anything from mud-slinging trails to beach runs with the family.
Under the hood sits the original-style 351M V8, now upgraded with an Edelbrock aluminum intake, Hooker long tube headers, and an HEI distributor, all breathing fire through a dual exhaust system. Paired with the bulletproof C6 automatic and front locking hubs, it’s got the muscle and traction to back up the attitude. Power steering, power brakes, and front discs help keep it in check when the going gets tough.
Inside, the custom two-tone red and black vinyl bench interior is a knockout. A billet steering wheel and Dakota Digital gauges modernize the cockpit, while a tilt column and retro radio blend comfort and nostalgia. The power rear window still works like a charm, and LED headlights ensure you see-and get seen-when the sun goes down.
1979 marked the final year of the first-gen full-size Bronco, making these trucks increasingly collectible-especially examples this dialed in. With its aggressive stance, throwback styling, and performance upgrades, this Bronco is the kind of rig that turns heads, starts conversations, and dominates wherever it’s parked.
Whether you’re after a show-stopper, trail crawler, or weekend cruiser, this classic Ford brings the heat and the heritage in one unstoppable package.
